This is my pretty pink prima donna all dressed up in her finery and flaunting her pretty frills and finery in my garden. This close-up of the pink double-petalled hibiscus is dedicated to Laura at Macro Friday, Tootsie at Fertilizer Friday, Sandra at Today's Flower and Beverly at Pink Saturday.
| Isn't she lovely? The prima donna imagery I am using for this hibiscus inspires this haiku which I dedicate to Haiku Heights for the prompt, 'Poison' beauty is a curse fawning jealousy veils poison in each smile |
A very beautiful flower. Have a wonderful weekend and take care:)
ReplyDeleteBeauty is a curse?
ReplyDeleteYou mean the hibiscus?
That is an awesome flower. I wish I could grow some like that. Truly a lovely post.
ReplyDelete@ A Garden of Threads - Thank you
ReplyDelete@ One - I was referring to beauty of performers like in the prima donna of a ballet...others in the cast would be jealous of her.But my hibiscus is safe, except from the poison of pests.

@LV - Thanks, but I was thinking if only I could grow pink roses like yours.
